Hello from Camellia City! This the first thread I've seen here. Was out today perusing the flush of blooms in pristine shape. They are so common here I think they get overlooked by most. I see the database does not have there flower forms with each entry but those I like are the formal flower form with it's seeming perfection of spiraling petals that give the impression of symmetry. March 1st is still Camellia Day here but we no longer have the Camellia Parade. The Capitols' Park has an old grove of Camellia trees that is quite a site if you time it right. I stopped to admire a few in my neighborhood today.
